BANANA!

Without the many republics and massive damage done we would not have the cheap bananas we all rely on for potassium and low level radiation.

i really hope you can clarify, are you saying genocide is justifiable to have cheap bananas?

I think he thinks "BANANA" is a company.

I do enjoy a BANANA brand banana

It is a dig on all banana companies as I don't know any that operate today with clean hands.

If someone can name a non villain banana producer I would like that.

Miami Fruit is expensive but they haven't committed any crimes against humanity that I'm aware of. They had lots of varieties last time I ordered but it's been a while.

Neat, did not think I would be reading about something good in Florida today. Thanks!
